VirtualMetric DataStream + Google SecOps Integration: Pre-Ingest UDM Normalization at Scale

Google SecOps (formerly Chronicle) is widely used for large-scale security analytics, long-term telemetry retention, and detection across diverse environments. Its Unified Data Model (UDM) enables correlation across sources and supports analytics that operate over long time horizons. To take full advantage of these capabilities, security data must arrive in a consistent and well-structured UDM format. In practice, this is rarely the case.

Kubex and Tangoe Partner to Deliver Unified Cloud, Kubernetes, and FinOps Optimization

Enterprises operating at cloud scale today face a growing reality: managing infrastructure performance and cost in silos no longer works. Kubernetes, multi cloud environments, and GPU accelerated workloads deliver immense agility and capability, but they also introduce complexity that outpaces traditional monitoring and cost governance approaches.

Weekly vs. split-week on-call rotations: A guide to finding the right rhythm

When you move past daily rotations but find anything longer than a week feels too stretched out, you often end up choosing between weekly and split-week rotations. Weekly rotations give you a full seven days before handing off. Split-week rotations break that time into smaller chunks like 2-day, 3-day, or 4-day shifts. Each approach creates a different rhythm for your team. This guide compares both patterns across three key criteria.

From Chaos To Clarity: How Forcepoint Scaled FinOps Across The Organization

When Anthony Leung talks about FinOps, he’s speaking from operating at real scale — not theory. As VP of Engineering Platforms and Security Research at Forcepoint, he led a transformation that cut cloud spend in half while improving availability, and built a culture where engineers own their economics.

(Tech Talk) Shipping with Context Knowledge Graphs as the Backbone of AI-First Software Delivery

Knowledge graphs are essential to solving the context bottleneck in AI-First software delivery, which occurs because workflows, policies, and dependencies are siloed and invisible to AI agents. In this Tech Talk, Prateek Mittal ((Product Director of AI Core and Data Platform at Harness)) discusses the key concepts: Knowledge Graphs vs. Observability: Observability tells you "what is happening," while knowledge graphs tell you "what does that mean" by modeling structured relationships. They work together to link live signals to affected services or SLAs.

Introducing Harness Artifact Registry | Unified. Secure. Built for the Future Artifact Management

Managing build artifacts today is harder than it should be. Fragmented tools, security blind spots, and disconnected developer workflows make it difficult to keep builds safe, consistent, and production-ready. In this walkthrough, Shibam Dhar, DevRel Engineer at Harness, shows how Harness Artifact Registry unifies artifact management across the entire software delivery lifecycle — from creation to deployment — while improving security and developer experience.

We Built an MCP Server

When I joined Kubex last year, the company was already well aware of the growing power of Large Language Models. As a company focused on intelligent resource optimization for Kubernetes, GPUs, and cloud infrastructure, generative AI didn’t feel like a threat so much as a natural extension of where the industry was heading. Kubex had already invested heavily in machine learning, but it was becoming clear that foundation models could unlock an entirely new class of capabilities for our customers.
